Nestlé South Africa has announced that it will cease the sale of Nesquik chocolate and strawberry milk drinks, available in both 250g and 500g sizes, starting from August 21, 2023.
This decision marks the end of Nesquik’s presence in the South African market.
Nestlé acknowledges that this move might lead to disappointment among some of its customers.
Other Beverage Lines to Continue Production
While the discontinuation of Nesquik is a significant step, Nestlé assures consumers that production will continue for other popular beverage lines such as Milo, Hot Chocolate, and Cocoa beverages.
These brands have displayed impressive performance and have garnered strong consumer loyalty.
As a result, Nestlé is directing its efforts towards building a more sustainable and health-conscious business in the future.
Nesquik’s Legacy and History
For over seven decades, Nesquik has held a special place in households across America and Europe.
Its journey began in 1948 when it was introduced in the US as Nestle Quik.
Rapidly becoming a household favorite, the product crossed the Atlantic and was launched as Nesquik in Europe during the mid-1950s.
In 1957, Nesquik made its way to the UK market, quickly becoming a staple in over 100 countries worldwide.
Notably, it has maintained its leading position as a powdered milk flavoring in the UK market.
Over the years, Nesquik has played a pivotal role in encouraging children to enjoy the nutritional benefits of milk by enhancing its flavor.
The absence of artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners, or preservatives in Nesquik makes it a wholesome choice for families.
Furthermore, it contains Vitamin D, essential for the absorption of calcium, contributing to the development of healthy bones in children, in the context of a balanced diet and lifestyle.

The convenience of Nesquik Ready-to-Drink options allows for a chocolate milk treat that can be savored on the go, whether as a part of a happier lunchbox or for instant enjoyment. Additionally, the product is available in various flavors, catering to diverse preferences.
